Firm up your friendship

Totally Us on an unrelated sunny day!

Now anyone that knows me for more than a couple hours, knows that i am not a sympathetic, soppy, lovey dovey, cry at anything kind of a woman (actually i don't know many women that are, but there are perceptions...).

One of my very first close friends when i was very young was the same, and we developed our own little way of dealing with our fall outs or disagreements that we would refer to as 'no emotions'. This had its benefits but we were young and it was basically a way of us avoiding fighting with each other about things we were both hyper sensitive about.

Age has so far been kind to me and i am blessed with some amazing friends, but recently one of my friends and I wrote a list of 10 of our favourite things about each other and then sent them or read them out.

I valued her as a friend before but after that will never look at her or be offended by anything she could say to me ever again. We recognised the good in each other, the value in each other and our relationship and it's something i would recommend to anyone.

happy loving!

November...

Ok so it's November, officially the time of year when I start to think about what next year might hold the possibilities for travel and growth. This year though I have just felt old and unsettled. This is not a good look! I can feel myself wanting to start making lists of things I want to do before I am 30 and wondering whether what I think I want to do with my life is really very sensible or sustainable or even what I really want to be doing at all! Shucks I hate it. O have the urge to cut all my hair off again, but I made a vow to myself not to cut it again until I get married ... I also want some colour and creativity but it'll look naff in my BIG hair so I think thats a no go too..... so I have to be content with eating as little as possible and doing as much exercise as possible to see a significant enough change in myself to warrant getting rid of my new year refreshment anxiety. Ha! I say Ha! Good luck.

New Year New You...

Sitting here watching Wallander which is quite good in a slow burning intellectual kinda way but odd at the same time. Very grey and bleak. I don't know what 2010 has in store for me but its started off kinda hot and cold. It's funny I always tend to write on this thing before something important, tomorrow is important and so is every other day this year I Just need to remember that!

They Say Knowledge is Power....

They Say Knowledge is Power,
And I Have Acquired So Much,
But All I Want To Know
Is How To Stop This Face Shower...
